Guide #56070
Bonjour, et Bienvenue à Paris ! Whether it's your first time in the capital or not, whether you are traveling alone or with your family, for 2H or a week, let me welcome you and be your guide in my beautiful city. --About me-- My name is Simon, I was born and raised in Paris! I am a very curious person, and passionate about History (French and World), Art, and Sciences. As a student, in 2013, I co-founded my school's Arts Bureau and started giving city tours. I continued this activity on the side for several years, until Covid happened. I decided at this time to become a full-time guide, and have never been happier! I pursued another Master, and a professional licence to become a qualified guide ! Today, I have the privilege of doing what I love every day : uncovering fascinating stories, exploring hidden corners, designing customized tours, and sharing Paris’ magic with visitors from around the world. Do you want to visit a particular monument? Discover secret photo spots? Taste an authentic French croissant? Or simply enjoy a coffee while chatting about Paris? I’ll take you to the city’s best-kept secrets and iconic highlights alike. Every tour is fully customizable, built around your interests and your schedule, so you get the perfect Paris experience. We will build the tour together, to make sure you and your family will have a great time during your time in Paris. --Professional highlights-- ○ Professional licence : Tour guide (2023) ○ Master in Cultural & Scientific communication (2022) ○ Engineering degree (2017) ○ Continuing education in history of art from French guiding associations and the School of the Louvre. In 2025/26, I'm taking the following classes at the Louvre : Egyptian epigraphy, Shadow & Light in art, Life & Death in Egypt, Mesopotamia, and a focus on Medieval times. --Booking info-- Please contact me before booking any tour to discuss your plans. I can guide you through many areas of Paris, including those not listed on the platform. Whether it’s Sainte-Chapelle, Montmartre, Le Marais, the covered passages, Versailles, or niche museums, let me know your interests and I’ll craft your perfect itinerary. Tours are generally limited to 6 participants, mainly due to ticketing constraints. Please get in touch if your group is larger. (Some tours are currently on hold, as tickets rules changed in 2026 (Louvre, Sainte-Chapelle), and became quite expensive.. If you are interested, of course you can contact me !) Let’s create your unforgettable Paris experience together. Share your dreams for the trip, and I’ll make them come alive. Be my guest, Simon

My family had a wonderful tour with Simon at Notre Dame. His enthusiasm and knowledge of the cathedral is so infectious. We have been to Notre Dame before, but Simon brought such insight. If you want to know more about Notre Dame then please book Simon

Thank you so much for your kind words and for trusting me with your tour booking. It was a real pleasure to share such a special moment together in the cathedral.
Both the Louvre and the d' Orsay are must visits while in Paris. From the greats of the Renaissance to the revolutionary Impressionist, the best way to visit these two museums is to have a knowledgeable and passionate guide. Simon was just that and made our visit both a learning and entertaining experience!
The Louvre is so big, it would be easy to spend days wandering about and taking in all the art and history. Having Simon, with all his knowledge and interesting anecdotes allowed us to see the most influential and famous paintings and sculptures within a limited timeframe. We definitely recommend Simon as a Louvre guide.
Simon was wonderful. He took us to see the works that I had requested and took us to see his favorite areas. We did the 2 hour (was a bit longer) with Simon and he gave us ideas for the next hour. The Louvre is massive so I appreciated seeing the most important things. Simon suggested we start at 9 and happy we did
